We left Friday afternoon for Tennessee and drove to Memphis and stayed the night. We then drove the rest of the way to Nashville to spend a few days with Peter's family.
When we got to Nashville we went to see a fort and it was under renovation and closed and then it started to rain. We decided it was time for lunch.
We saw a Joe's Crab Shack and it was great! It was a large restaurant and so the tables were a bit more spaced out and so I was not as stressed about my kids wandering from their seats. The waitress was fabulous and the food delicious. It was truly one of the better sit down dining experiences I have had in a while.
We obviously had a great time with the camera and the hanging shark.
The rain had stopped and we headed off again. According the GPS the other fort we wanted to see was only about 1.5 miles away so we decided to walk.
It started out great but it soon became humid and hot and the kids grew tired as most of it was a slow uphill climb. But we made it.
There was not a ton to see but it was interesting. We did not stay long since the walk there had taken so long. We figured out the bus route and knew which bus we would need to take and decided to start walking back until we passed that bus. We never passed it but the kids did so much better walking down hill.
It helps when you can pile 2 kids in the stroller and dad is willing to carry you on his shoulders. Bless Joey, he did not get to ride in a stroller or on someone's back the whole time. He is a tough kid and I love him!
The night ended with everyone gathering at the beautiful house we were staying at and a family dinner.
